a ban on pitbulls will certainly reduce the incidents of attacks & fatalities.
The question is whether another breed will fill in the void. The answer to that should be obvious, given human nature.
Then dog bans turn into a game of whak-a-mole, as determined people breed a dog 95% like a pitbull, but not enough to be illegal.
At that point, dog bans turn into the obscenity law: so vague nobody knows if they break the law until a court convicts them. "any dog that bites but does not let go" is illegal. "any dog that growls at kids & wont stop" is illegal.
Good luck with that. A better idea is to give the death penalty to any dog owner whose dog mauls another person. problem solved
